Lyrics

I Do What I Want

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm a major minority

I can tell the government lies

Long as they don’t compromise my infernal disguise

Cold water is all around

Is this what it feels like to drown

Ain't nobody to pull me out

It feels like I'm going down

White magic hypocrisy

Forced to follow the rules

And there ain't no places to fit us in

'Cause its been this way all along

I do what I want whenever I like

Because it's my right

I don’t ever want to do what I told

I'm getting old

And this is how my life’s been turning out

I do what I want whenever I like

Because it's my right

I don’t ever want to do what I told

I'm getting old

And this is how my life’s been turning out

I do what I want whenever I like

Because it's my right

I don’t ever want to do what I told

I'm getting old

And this is how my life’s been turning out

I do what I want whenever I like

Because it's my right

I don’t ever want to do what I told

I'm getting old

And this is how my life’s been turning out

For me
